The 'decuriones' and 'seviri Augustales urbani (!)' and the 'officiales' receive two denarii each and the collegia members one denarius each. There was also a public banquet for these privileged groups), those present received bread and wine. All common people ('populo'), men and women alike, received a handout of oil.
